## Getting Started

When you enable HitTail in the Segment web app, your changes appear in the Segment CDN in about 45 minutes, and then Analytics.js starts asynchronously loading `hittail.js` onto your page. This means you should remove HitTail's snippet from your page.

HitTail automatically starts recording search keywords and showing them on its dashboard.

HitTail does not track any other forms of data, so the rest of the Segment API is not supported.

## Settings

Segment lets you change these destination settings from the Segment app without having to touch any code.
